Keeley Jones

Keeley Jones starts out as a former model dating one of AFC Richmond's star players, treated by the press and locker room alike as decorative. She's sharper than anyone gives her credit for — funny, emotionally fluent, and quick to see through the men around her, even as she's still figuring out what she wants for herself.

The show could easily have left Keeley as the footballer's girlfriend, but the writing keeps handing her real instincts about people and business, and Temple plays her with an openness that never curdles into naivety. She's warm without being simple, and her friendships do as much work as her romances.
